U.S. Air Force Pilots Not Being Given Permission From Obama To Engage ISIS Targets in Iraq





U.S. Air Force Pilots Not Being Given Permission from Obama To Engage ISIS Targets in Iraq

USAF general says bureaucracy hindering air war against ISIS


F-18 Pilot: "There were times I had groups of ISIS fighters in my sights and couldn't get clearance to engage. They probably killed innocent people and spread evil because of my inability to kill them, it was frustrating"

Hands are tied: Fox News Jennifer Griffin says they talked to an F-18 pilot and he stated that they are not getting clearance from higher ups to engage the enemy.


One Air Force General who talked to Fox News says there is one reason these strike are not happening-- The Obama White House-- They caused this bottleneck in the chain of command

You can watch the video , it is the report from Fox News' Jennifer Griffin. She says that 75% of U.S. planes are returning without dropping their ordnance.
